Tiger in the snow - Hokusai
Excellent
L'œuvre en bref
In Tiger in the Snow, Hokusai captures the striking contrast between the brute power of the tiger and the silent softness of the surrounding snow. The feline, with its distinctive stripes and piercing eyes, seems to leap out of the canvas, its vivacity contrasting with the wintry calm that surrounds it. The delicately depicted snowflakes accentuate the coldness of the scene, amplifying the sense of energy exuded by the tiger.
This animal portrait is fully in keeping with the ukiyo-e tradition, while also demonstrating Hokusai's ability to transcend genres. With this painting, the artist reminds us of the precarious balance between strength and vulnerability, and the beauty that emanates from these moments of opposition.
